EASTENDERS star Laila Morse was left red-faced on tonight's edition of Celebrity MasterChef after forgetting which programme she was actually on.

The 70-year-old soap actress was seen telling judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace: "See what you have to put up with on this Mastermind!"

Her comments caused the two men to burst out laughing and the star was soon cracking up after realising she had made a gaffe.

As John was bent over in laughter, she was seen jokingly shouting at the camera: "Cut! Cut!"

Laila Morse yells 'cut' after making a gaffe

The star, who best known for her portrayal of Walford regular Big Mo, again won over Twitter tonight after her zinging one-liners had viewers amused at home.

The latest episode of the reality cooking series saw celebrities Laila, Sugababes singer Amelle Berrabah, former rugby star Neil Back and Reverend Richard Coles spilt into two teams and cater for the staff working at Battersea Power Station.

During a conversation with the kitchen's chef, Laila joked about her dishes, saying: "If you don't eat it, you'll wear it - and no leftovers!"

The Instagram chefs and foodies taking the internet by storm.

By the end of the episode it looked like Laila and Neil had more success with their meal compared to Amelle and Richard, whose menu was met with a mixed reception from diners - even though the singer appeared to sabotage their food.

The celebrities now have one last chance to impress the judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace to grab a place in the semi-finals of this year's competition.
